BACKGROUND 1. Field

The present disclosure relates to a multilayer ceramic electronic component having improved reliability and a board for mounting of the same.

2. Description of Related Art

With the recent trend toward miniaturization of electronic products, there is increasing demand for a multilayer ceramic electronic component having a small size and high capacity.

Along with the demand for a multilayer ceramic electronic component having a small size and high capacity, external electrodes of a multilayer ceramic electronic component have also been thinned.

An external paste contains a conductive metal such as copper (Cu) as a main material to ensure hermetic chip sealing properties and electrical connectivity in a chip. The external paste also contains a glass as an auxiliary material to provide adhesive strength between the external electrodes and the chip while filling voids during sintering shrinkage of the metal.

A glass of the external electrode paste serves to accelerate copper sintering and serves as an adhesive between a ceramic body and an external electrode. The glass fills a void, not filled with copper, to achieve complete hermetic sealing.

In general, an external electrode paste includes two or three different types of glass. In view of the nature of a typical glass, a glass with excellent acid resistance or excellent capacity contactability has poor copper wettability due to its high softening point, while a glass having excellent copper wettability has poor acid resistance or poor capacity contactability.

Conventionally, an external electrode is formed by applying, drying, and firing an external electrode paste including a single type of glass or two or three different types of glass.

In the case of such applying and firing performed once, a glass included in an external electrode paste may not satisfy all requirements such as adhesiveness of an internal electrode and an external electrode, sealing of the external electrode, wettability with copper (Cu), acid resistance, and the like.

That is, when the content of silicon (Si), one of the glass ingredients in an external electrode paste, increases, acid resistance is excellent, but wettability with copper (Cu) may be degraded and a softening point may become higher. As a result, the glass may not sufficiently fill an interface and a void in Cu metal.

On the other hand, a glass having excellent copper wettability encounters the problem that acid resistance is poor or capacity contactability is weak.

In view of the foregoing, an external electrode paste may be prepared by including two or three types of glass capable of solving the above problems. However, in order for the respective types of glass to successfully achieve desired functions, they need to be located in desired positions in the external electrode, respectively. However, high-temperature characteristics of glass make it difficult to locate the glass at a desired position in external electrode.

Multilayer Ceramic Electronic Component

Exemplary embodiments in the present disclosure will be described more fully hereinafter with reference to accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a multilayer ceramic capacitor according to an exemplary embodiment.

FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along line I-I′ in FIG. 1 .

Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2 , a multilayer ceramic electronic component 100 according to an exemplary embodiment may include a ceramic body 110 including a dielectric layer 111, a first internal electrode 121 and a second internal electrode 122 disposed to face each other with the dielectric layer 111 interposed therebetween in the ceramic body 110, and first and second external electrodes 131 and 132 disposed on external surfaces of the ceramic body 110 and electrically connected to the first and second internal electrodes 121 and 122. The first and second external electrodes 131 and 132 include first electrodes 131 a and 132 a including a first glass and second electrode layers 131 b and 132 b disposed on the first electrode layers 131 a and 132 a and including a second glass. The first glass includes barium-zinc (Ba—Zn), and the second glass includes silicon (Si).

Hereinafter, a multilayer ceramic electronic component according to an exemplary embodiment will be described, in particular, a multilayer ceramic capacitor will be described, but exemplary embodiments in the present disclosure are not limited thereto.

In a multilayer ceramic capacitor according to an exemplary embodiment in the present disclosure, a ‘length direction,’ a ‘width direction,’ and a ‘thickness direction’ will be defined as an ‘L’ direction, a ‘W’ direction, and a ‘T’ direction in FIG. 1 , respectively. The ‘thickness direction’ may be used as having the same concept as a direction in which dielectric layers are laminated, i.e., a ‘lamination direction.’

According to an exemplary embodiment in the present disclosure, a material for forming the dielectric layer 111 is not particularly limited as long as sufficient capacitance can be obtained therewith, and may be, for example, a barium titanate (BaTiO₃) powder.

A material for forming the dielectric layer 111 may be a powder such as a barium titanate (BaTiO₃) powder to which various ceramic additives, organic solvents, plasticizers, binders, dispersants, and the like may be added, according to objectives of the present disclosure.

A material for forming the first and second internal electrodes 121 and 122 is not particularly limited, and they may be formed using a conductive paste including at least one of, for example, silver (Ag), lead (Pb), platinum (Pt), nickel (Ni), and copper (Cu).

A multilayer ceramic capacitor according to an exemplary embodiment in the present disclosure may include a first external electrode 131 electrically connected to the first internal electrode 121 and a second external electrode 132 electrically connected to the second internal electrode 122.

The first and second external electrodes 131 and 132 may be electrically connected to the first and second internal electrodes 121 and 122 to form capacitance, and the second external electrode 132 may be connected to an electrode having a potential different from a potential of an electrode to which the first external electrode 131 is connected.

According to an exemplary embodiment in the present disclosure, the first and second external electrodes 131 and 132 include first electrodes 131 a and 132 a including a first glass and second electrode layers 131 b and 132 b disposed on the first electrode layers 131 a and 132 a and including a second glass. The first glass contains a larger amount of barium-zinc (Ba—Zn) than the second glass, and the second glass contains a larger amount of silicon (Si) than the first glass.

Hereinafter, structures of the first and second external electrodes 131 and 132 will be described in detail.

In general, nickel (Ni) is commonly used as a main material of an internal electrode and copper (Cu) is commonly used as a main material of an external electrode. When a glass is added to an external electrode paste, copper (Cu) contained in the external electrode may easily move to the internal electrode according to flowability of the glass.

When the copper (Cu) moving to the internal electrode meets nickel, an element constituting the internal electrode, a copper-nickel alloy may be formed through a sintering process.

The formation of the copper-nickel alloys may allow the external electrode and the internal electrode to be electrically connected to each other.

To implement the above characteristics, the first and second external electrodes 131 and 132 include first electrodes 131 a and 132 a including a first glass.

The first electrode layers 131 a and 132 a may include a conductive metal, one selected from the group consisting of copper (Cu), nickel (Ni), silver (Ag), and silver-palladium (Ag—Pd), and a first glass.

To form capacitance, the first and second external electrodes 131 and 132 may be formed at opposite ends of the ceramic body 100, respectively. The first electrode layers 131 a and 132 a included in the first and second external electrodes 131 and 132 may be electrically connected to the first and second internal electrodes 121 and 122.

The first electrode layers 131 a and 132 a may be formed by applying the conductive paste prepared by adding the first glass to the first conductive metal powder and firing the applied conductive paste.

When copper wettability of the glass is excellent, the glass may be uniformly dispersed within the external electrodes. In this case, a plating layer may be easily formed.

The sentence “copper wettability of the glass is excellent” means that the glass is not aggregated or separated within the external electrode but is uniformly distributed over the entire external electrode to prevent the glass from exuding to a surface of the external electrode.

When the copper wettability of the glass is poor, the glass may not be uniformly mixed with copper, a main material of the external electrode, and glasses tend to aggregate. Thus, the glass exudes to the surface of the external electrode. As a result, it is difficult to form plating layers 131 c and 132 c.

To improve the above characteristics, second electrodes 131 b and 132 b may be formed on the first electrode layers 131 a and 132 a to form a double-layer external electrode.

As an external electrode is decreasing in thickness with the trend toward miniaturization and high capacitance of products, after firing an external electrode, a plating solution may permeate the external electrode during a plating process to degrade chip reliability.

Since a glass contained in an external electrode is not excellent in terms of corrosion resistance against a plating solution, the plating solution may permeate the external electrode as the glass is corroded by the plating solution. By promoting corrosion resistance of the glass contained in the external electrode against plating solution, the plating solution may be prevented from permeating the external electrode during a plating process. Thus, chip reliability may be improved.

The second electrode layers 131 b and 132 b may include a conductive metal, one selected from the group consisting of copper (Cu), nickel (Ni), silver (Ag), and silver-palladium (Ag—Pd), and a second glass.

The second electrode layers 131 b and 132 b may be formed by applying the conductive paste prepared by adding the second glass to the second conductive metal powder and firing the applied conductive paste.

The first and second glasses are not particularly limited as long as they are typical glasses except for features to be described later and may be glasses including, for example, a silicon-based oxide or a boron-based oxide.

The first glass may contain a larger amount of Ba—Zn than the second glass.

Since the first glass may contain a larger amount of Ba—Zn than the second glass, a density of the first glass may be high.

Since contents of Ba and Zn contained in the first glass may be high, the first glass may be less acid resistant to a nickel (Ni) plating solution.

To improved the degree of acid resistance, according to an exemplary embodiment in the present disclosure, second electrode layers 131 b and 132 b including the second glass with excellent acid resistance may be disposed on the first electrode layers 131 a and 132 a.

The second glass included in the second electrodes 131 b and 132 b may contain a larger amount of silicon (Si) than the first glass.

As mentioned above, since the second glass may contain a larger amount of Si than the first glass, acid resistance of the second glass may be excellent. Accordingly, when plating layers 131 c and 132 c are formed on the second electrode layers 131 b and 132 b, corrosion caused by a plating solution and permeation of the plating solution may be prevented, to improve moisture resistance reliability.

More specifically, silicon oxide (SiO₂) is a glass network former having a structure in which silicon atoms are bonded to four adjacent silicon atoms with four oxygen atoms interposed therebetween.

Silicon oxide (SiO₂) acts as the most significant factor in determining a softening temperature and a degree of acid resistance of glass. In the case that the content of silicon oxide (SiO₂) is low, a glass network structure may be weak, and thus, the softening temperature may be low and the acid resistance may be weak. Meanwhile, when the content of silicon oxide (SiO₂) is high, the glass network structure may be strong and thus the softening temperature may be high and the acid resistance may be strong.

According to an exemplary embodiment in the present disclosure, the second glass included in the second electrodes 131 b and 132 b contains a larger amount of silicon (Si) than the first glass. For this reason, the softening temperature of the second glass may be high and the acid resistance of the second glass may be strong. As a result, corrosion caused by a plating solution and permeation of the plating solution may be prevented.

According to an exemplary embodiment in the present disclosure, the second electrode layers 131 b and 132 b may contain zirconium (Zr) and dysprosium (Dy).

The second electrode layers 131 b and 132 b may contain Zr and Dy, which are highly bonded elements, to be excellent in preventing corrosion caused by a plating solution and permeation of the plating solution.

The second electrode layers 131 b and 132 b may contain a larger amount of zirconium (Zr) and dysprosium (Dy) than the first electrode layers 131 a and 132 a.

The second electrode layers 131 b and 132 b may contain a larger amount of zirconium (Zr) and dysprosium (Dy) than the first electrode layers 131 a and 132 a. For this reason, the first electrode layers 131 a and 132 a hay be high in terms of density while the second electrode layers 131 b and 132 b may be strong in terms of acid resistance.

According to an exemplary embodiment in the present disclosure, first and second external electrodes 131 and 132 includes first electrode layers 131 a and 132 a which include a first glass and second electrode 131 b and 132 b which are disposed on the first electrodes 131 a and 132 a and include a second glass. The first glass contains a larger amount of Ba—Zn than the second glass, and the second glass contains a larger amount of Si than the first glass. For this reason, permeation of a plating solution may be prevented to implement a multilayer ceramic electronic component having improved reliability.

According to an exemplary embodiment in the present disclosure, the plating layers 131 c and 132 c may be formed by plating and, in particular, may be nickel/tin plating layers but are not limited thereto.

FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along line I-I′ according to a first exemplary embodiment.

FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view taken along line I-I′ according to a second exemplary embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 3 , a multilayer ceramic capacitor 100 according to a first embodiment in the present disclosure is characterized in that the first electrodes layers 131 a and 132 a and the second electrode layers 131 b and 132 b are disposed to extend from opposing end surfaces of the ceramic body 110 in a length direction onto top and bottom surfaces of the ceramic body 110, and an extension length of the second electrodes 131 b and 132 b onto the top and bottom surfaces of the ceramic body 110 may be shorter than an extension length of the first electrode layers 131 a and 132 a onto the top and bottom surfaces of the ceramic body 110. The first electrode layers 131 a and 132 a extend beyond the second electrode layers 131 b and 132 b on the top and bottom surfaces of the ceramic body.

According to the first exemplary embodiment in the present disclosure, first electrode layers 131 a and 132 a having high density may be disposed to extend from opposing end surfaces of the ceramic body in a length direction to top and bottom surfaces of the ceramic body 110, and second electrode layers 131 b and 132 b, having excellent acid resistance, may be disposed to cover a corner portion of the ceramic body 110, most vulnerable to permeation of a plating solution.

In this case, the second electrode layers 131 b and 132 b with excellent acid resistance is disposed to cover the corner portion of the ceramic body 110, most vulnerable to permeation of a plating solution, and an extension length of the second electrodes 131 b and 132 b onto the top and bottom surfaces of the ceramic body 110 is shorter than an extension length of the first electrode layers 131 a and 132 a onto the top and bottom surfaces of the ceramic body 110 to minimize a thickness of an external electrode.

Referring to FIG. 4 , a multilayer ceramic capacitor 100 according to the second embodiment in the present disclosure is characterized in that the first electrode layers 131 a and 132 a and the second electrode layers 131 b and 132 b are disposed to extend from opposing end surfaces of the ceramic body 110 in a length direction to top and bottom surfaces of the ceramic body 110, and an extension length of the second electrode layers 131 b and 132 b onto the top and bottom surfaces of the ceramic body 110 is longer than an extension length of the first electrode layers 131 a and 132 a onto the top and bottom surfaces of the ceramic body 110. The second electrode layers 131 b and 132 b extend beyond the first electrode layers 131 a and 132 a on the top and bottom surfaces of the ceramic body.

According to the second exemplary embodiment in the present disclosure, in the case of an ultra-small multilayer ceramic capacitor, an extension direction of first and second electrode layers 131 a and 132 a from opposing end surfaces of the ceramic body in a length direction to top and bottom surfaces of the ceramic body 110 may be significantly short. Since the first electrode layers 131 a and 132 a include a first glass which may be significantly vulnerable to glass corrosion, the ultra-small multilayer ceramic capacitor may be vulnerable to corrosion caused by a plating solution and permeation of the plating solution.

In this case, second electrodes 131 b and 132 b with excellent acid resistance may be disposed to cover the first electrode layers 131 a and 132 a, vulnerable to permeation of the plating solution, and an extension length of the second electrode layers 131 b and 132 b onto the top and bottom surfaces of the ceramic body 110 may be longer than an extension length of the first electrode layers 131 a and 132 b onto the top and bottom surfaces of the ceramic body 110.

That is, since the second electrode layers 131 b and 132 b has strong acid resistance although a portion disposed to extend onto the top and bottom surfaces of the ceramic body 110 has a low thickness, corrosion caused by the plating solution and permeation of the plating solution may be prevented, to improve moisture resistance reliability.

Hereinafter, a method for manufacturing a multilayer ceramic electronic component according to another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

First, a ceramic body 110 may be prepared, including a dielectric layer 111 and first and second internal electrodes 121 and 122 disposed to face each other with the dielectric layer 111 interposed therebetween may be prepared.

The dielectric 111 may be formed as a ceramic green sheet prepared to have a thickness of several micrometers (μm) by mixing barium titanate (BaTiO₃) with a ceramic additive, an organic solvent, a plasticizer, a binder, and a dispersant to coat a slurry formed using a basket mill on a carrier film and to dry a resulting structure.

A conductive paste may be dispensed onto the ceramic green sheet, and an internal electrode layer may be formed of the conductive paste while a squeegee moves in one side direction.

The conductive paste may be formed of one of precious metal materials such as silver (Ag), lead (Pb), platinum (Pt), and the like, nickel (Ni), and copper (Cu) or a mixture of at least two thereof.

After the internal electrodes 121 and 122 are formed, the ceramic green sheet is removed from the carrier film. A plurality of ceramic green sheets may be laminated to overlap each other to form a multilayer structure.

The green sheet multilayer structure is compressed at high temperature and high pressure. The compressed green sheet multilayer structure may be cut into a plurality of portions having a predetermined size through a cutting process to fabricate a ceramic body.

An external electrode paste may be prepared, including a conductive metal containing 10 to 90 parts by weight of conductive metal particles having an average particle diameter of 0.3 μm or less and a first glass having a content ratio of 0.3 to 2.0 of the conductive metal.

The conductive metal may be at least one selected from the group consisting of copper (Cu), nickel (Ni), silver (Ag), and silver-palladium (Ag—Pd).

The first glass has greater contents of barium (Ba) and zinc (Zn) than a second glass to be described later.

An external electrode paste may be coated on the ceramic body 110 to be electrically connected to the first and second internal electrodes 121 and 122 to form first electrode layers 131 a and 132 a.

An external electrode paste including the second glass containing a larger amount of silicon (Si) than the first glass may be coated on the first electrode layers 131 a and 132 a to form second electrode layers 131 b and 132 b.

Plating layers 131 c and 132 c may be formed on the second electrode layers 131 b and 132 b by means of plating.

Finally, the ceramic body 110 may be sintered to form first and second external electrodes 131 and 132.
